Comment:

Some points here: the content area width is set to a fixed width to
improve readability. The ticket page looks really silly (IMHO) if the
width is unconstrained and the available horizontal space is large.

On the other hand, the fixed width severely limited the usability of the
ticket page when the the available horizontal space was actually
'''smaller''' than the fixed width. This particular problem has been
addressed in the changesets [959], [979] and [1000]. At the end, the
ticket will never be wider than the available horizontal space, but will
also not grow beyond a width of 700px.

I'm going close this ticket as fixed, please reopen if you see issues with
this approach, or you think the original issue has not actually been
resolved by the changes made.
